[P2P-F] Libertarians

[Natalie Golovin]

Read history-Most of the deaths were from disease. That native didn't have 
immunity can't be blamed on Europeans. Alcoholism is tied to generic 
differences in metabolism. The processing of sugars is different in peoples 
who were nomadic-didn't eat regularly and had a high protein diet. The 
actual conflicts that caused hostile actions were economic and trade 
related-and manipulated from England then Washington. BTW I have travelled 
extensively-including to many tribal lands.

Sorry, I feel I have to step in and clear up this illusion that
somehow we're "romanticizing" the native peoples.  It is not fucking
"romantic" just because one doesn't want to be the genocidal
benefactor of 12 million deaths.  IS it?  Is that how you want to
define the basis of the wealth of the Nation?  That you're prosperous
because you've built up an empire standing on top of 12 million,
mostly innocent people, living on their ancient, ancestral lands as
they had for thousands of years before we invaded it.  Go fucking
visit a reservation in northern nebraska and see the people that
suffer to this day, unable to "cure" their alcoholism because their
spirit and grand relationship to the cosmos has been broken simply
because you had a fucking gun.

Pardon me, sorry for any friendly-fire..

The invaders came from crowded cities and were "homesteading."
